Did he say she was 6'7" -6'8"?

 

[mets1090]

He did which is interesting because everything else I've seen on her has her listed at 6'3"-6'4"

The analyst says Breanna is 6'7", she's 6"3 or 6'4".

Breanna does have a chance to be All American in her freshmen year if she starts from day one at UConn. Breanna is coming in with more accolades then KML did. Agree with his other points that Breanna does need to gain more weight and the muscle to go with the weight.

yes. it's amazing to me how that myth keeps perpetuating. Bree herself has said she's 6'4", but she may grow a little more (i think she said she may get to 6'5") but we won't know till we see for sure. kind of uneducated (the comments by the reporter). watching her in the pan am games, her FT shooting was 19-21 over the 4 or so games they played. hardly a 1 game fluke. but i do agree she could use a few more moves around the basket, but as he said, it's nit picking. she should hopefully get stronger as she gets older. after all, she's only 17 or so...

Bree is the second high school player ever to play for the USA in the Pan-Am Games. The other one is (was) Nancy Lieberman -- a very long time ago.

I don't think this coach/commentator has a clue about how good Bre really is, and what a broad range of skills she has.

Here we go again

 

[MilfordHusky]

There is a clear consensus that her reach/wingspan is the same as her nickname--6'10".

Player of the week? Try the decade!

A very knowledgeable person has said that she would be 1st Team All-Big East if she were in college this year.

That is now said by USA basketball to be 7'

OMG! Geno will need a ladder to speak to her.

 

[UConnCat]

OMG! Geno will need a ladder to speak to her.

Or he'll say what he said to Griner before speaking to her: "Hey Brittney, get down here."

 

[pap49cba]

By the time she gets on campus she should be 7' 6" minimum.

 

[mets1090]

All these numbers are making my head spin. What I need to know is how many Hilton Units will she be

Bingo, we have a winner

Apparently it does not take much knowledge to become a basketball analyst. At least check your "facts."
